What is lip tint?

Lip tint is a cosmetic product designed to add a subtle and natural color to the lips. Unlike traditional lipsticks, which are usually heavier and more opaque, lip tints are typically lighter and more sheer. They are often formulated with a water or gel-like base, making them hydrating and long-lasting. Many lip tints also contain nourishing ingredients, such as vitamin E or aloe, which can help soothe and protect the lips. Lip tints come in a wide range of shades, from classic reds and pinks to more unconventional colors like orange and purple. They are often preferred by people who want a more natural, effortless look or those who find traditional lipstick too heavy or drying. Lip tints can be applied directly to the lips or used as a base layer under a gloss or balm. They can also be layered for more intensity.
